If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.
A team of scientists did research on 33 people who were getting better from heart problems after receiving medical care. They found those people exercised while listening to music. The Four Seasons did much better on language ability(能力)tests than without music. Doctors also use it on people who have had head hurts because it has a beautiful melody.
"Exercise seems to cause changes in the nerve(神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart problems," said Charles Emery. "And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together," he added.
The people said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have showed that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.
Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.
